RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Recorders, Inc. (Nasdaq: TBUS - news) today announced the award of new orders totaling $2.6 million for its TwinVision LeDot® Destination Sign Systems and Talking Bus® Automatic Voice Annunciation Systems, primarily for year 2000 delivery. Both domestic and international customers are involved.
The domestic order is for use on San Francisco Municipal Railway transit bus vehicles and encompasses the totally automated Global Positioning Satellite message triggering Talking Bus System integrated with the new generation TwinVision® Destination Sign System.
The International order is for TwinVision systems to be installed on transit bus vehicles operated by Trans Island Bus in Singapore. This order was placed through the DRI Transit Media GmbH subsidiary in Germany.

They are evidence of our strategic advantage in advancing technology, including the capability to combine and integrate the exterior and interior passenger information systems. Also, they are strategically important multi-million dollar markets for our products where we continue to gain significant market penetration,'' Mr. Turney said.
